Sorry so long since…
I guess my life is just not that exciting any more or having no crazy husband around to do stupid things has left me with nothing much to write about these days. This week our school lost another teacher to cancer. Barbara and Brad had many conversations once she was diagnosed. You could find Brad sitting with her and they would be deep into a conversation about numbers, blood work, tests, good docs, etc. The way I received the message was by text stating that she and Brad were sharing breakfast at the banquet table laid out for them. I hope she told him that Katie and I were doing OK. I wish there was a way to get cell phone reception from Heaven…I sure would like to hear his voice.
House reno is going good. I was beginning to get a little crazy when all the kitchen stuff was spread out everywhere. My house looked like an episode of the Hoarders! All cabinets are in, tile is mostly done, next comes the granite!!! All this started because I wanted a dishwasher after a year of not having one. This was the last big purchase Brad’s knows that I made….I’m sure now he sees all the other “costs” associated with that dishwasher and the funny thing is is that it isn’t even hooked back up yet and I don’t care!!!
It is nice not having a class this semester. Katie just started her spring round this week all while being sick with viral bronchitis. I guess it will be good next year when she can maybe miss out on every first year teacher disease since she has had it all this year starting with a case of swine flu!!! Maybe she thought my care taking skills weren’t being practiced any longer and she needed to do her part.
Thanks for still logging in and checking to see if I had written….maybe I will get back in the swing of doing it. Or maybe something exciting will happen soon that I can write about!!!
Weird, the “permalink” format got changed to something very odd. I finally figured out what was up, but am a bit alarmed that this admin setting could get whacked like this.
At any rate, thanks for writing. I had just hit the blog this morning looking for an update.

Hi, I just stumbled upon your blog here in China. The interent is a funny thing, since I was binging cash wrap stations for a thrift store. Your blog caught my attention and I read through so many of your and Brad’s entries. My husband and I are roughly the same age, and have so many friends that are battling different cancers. Thank you for sharing the journey of your thoughts and insights, not only with family and friends but also with complete strangers onn the other side of the world. My heart goes out to you and your daughter. May God bless you both and may you have peace and strenth in His loving care.

Hi Ms. Williams – I’m so sorry to hear of the loss of Ms. C. I loved working with her in the library in my “elementary days”. Hope Katie gets well soon! Think of you lots – please know that! Nancy M. & fam.
